Working hard in the holidays!

What can you do in 24 hours? My most productive day during the holidays consisted of learning how to juggle, building 54 settlements, 18 cities, 108 roads, building a roller coaster, and reading a book! Playing all day is rough, but as my dad would say, "Somebody's got to do it!".

What was Jane Austen thinking?!

Please note: If you have not read Sense and Sensibility, but plan to do so sometime in your life, then you may wish to neglect this blog post.

A pleasant, stress-free day was planned with only one item on my to-do list: to finish Sense and Sensibility. Little did I know that the last few chapters would bring such deep disappointment and frustration into my life! The novel was finished with a scowl deeply ingrained on my face. Elinor was supposed to marry Colonel Brandon! How could Jane Austen create such an irrational and undesired ending as Elinor marrying Edward and Marianne marrying Colonel Brandon? I mean... really! What was she thinking? It's a good thing, I suppose, that I have an appointment with a massage therapist this afternoon!

What is this feeling?

http://youtube.com/watch?v=ud21pqKeSuw
My pulse is rushing. My head is reeling. My face is flushing. What is this feeling? Every Tuesday and Thursday at 12:30pm, my nerves go crazy within my body and cause my limbs to tremble, my head to ache, my pulse to surge, and my body temperature to raise! All of this nervous stress because of my Anatomy and Physiology class at 1:30. Just the thought of this class makes my nerves go crazy! I become physically ill twice a week as a result of this terrifying class! Studying for Anatomy invokes the same feelings as attending class, so please be praying for me today at 12:00 as I take this final. By 2:00, I will be liberated from this loathsome class!!! Hurray!

Porque, why?!

Last week was the very last week of classes for the semester! So, porque, why...
Why did my phone break the week before all of my friends leave for the holidays?
Why did Microsoft Office get deleted off of my computer when I had four papers and two projects to complete?
Why did my dear brother leave for England when my stress level was already peaked?
Why did I witness a sinful act that burdens my heart?
Porque!?
